Comments

I'm not a Marvel fan, so nothing for me this week. I'll be playing as much of the Final Fest as I can, having all the returning stages and some new music is really awesome. I'm gonna miss these events, I hope one of Nintendo's other games introduces regular online events. They have a certain atmosphere to them, and it's just really cool.
